Scooter is Innocent! (So he says)
Former White House aide Lewis "Scooter" Libby has pleaded not guilty to charges related to the leak of a CIA agent's identity.
Libby, who was chief of staff to Vice-President Dick Cheney, faces five counts of perjury, making false statements and obstructing justice.
If the case does go to trial, the White House will have to brace itself for more political damage, says the BBC's Oliver Conway in Washington. Mr Cheney and other top Bush administration officials could be summoned to testify.
